I received a kidney/pancreas transplant in 1998 and had the kidney fail in 2000 because of a virus.

Did you get another kidney yet? My husband didn't survive his kidney/pancreas transplant in 1997. It's good to see a success, even if it is limited. However, I think organ transplantation needs to soon become archaic. Unfortunately, it generates so much money for hospitals and doctors and clinics that it looks like it is here to stay rather than being replaced with superior treatments.

I am presently waiting for another kidney. The pancreas is still working, so I am thankful for that.
